Pros

If you find the time and be willing, you can learn a lot about the industry. Great benefits if important to you. Workers below management are great. Great brands that are used in everyday life. Sustainability in their brand's culture. Agile work force for some.

Cons

Environment for workers is unsustainable. Managers have no interest in mentor and teach. Most dowright rude. Do not expect to be heard or appreciated. Huge management problems. Most should not become one. Very political environment. Culture of insecurity. A lot of shuffle around without any respect to matching workers

Pros

Coworkers are friendly and helpful. Convenient location and in house cafeteria. Decent benefits. Company events held on site which does make it easy for employees to participate.

Cons

Many policies in place but those policies don't apply to management. How to get ahead within the company - make sure you have a Sr. Executive as your champion. Hard workers may not be rewarded. Yearly reorganizations with layoffs and positions eliminated and remaining workers get double the workload. They preach about work and personal life balance but don't support it. HR not very helpful with benefits or supporting employees with any issues. No training and very difficult to get new employees on board with equipment. High turnover.
